SWEET ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH PENNE PASTA



Sweet Italian Sausage With Penne Pasta image

We are Italian and if you go through my recipes you'll find alot of wonderful, quick and easy pasta dishes. We love our pasta and we love garlic, too! Serve this with garlic Texas toast. I can't eat pasta much anymore because I'm diabetic but my husband and daughter love it so I keep making it for them. I usually eat salmon (I have one or two good ones for salmon, too- check them out).

Categories     Penne

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb penne pasta
1 lb broccoli floret (I use frozen)
8 ounces Italian sausage, cut in bite-size chunks (sweet & mild)
2 tablespoons garlic, minced (you can use less if you want)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup grated pecorino romano cheese

Steps:

  • Boil the water and cook the penne according to package directions. DO NOT ever add oil to the water! It will make your sauce slide off the pasta later.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil (medium-high heat) in a large skillet and saute the broccoli, sausage and garlic until tender and starting to brown, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Toss the butter, hot pasta, sausage mixture and romano cheese together and serve. Pass the grated cheese at the table.

SWEET ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH RED GRAVY AND PASTA



Sweet Italian Sausage With Red Gravy and Pasta image

This is one of my husband's family's recipes. It's simple and doesn't require much prep time, especially if you use a food processor to cut the onion and celery. Seasoning amounts are approximate, though I don't recommend shorting the sugar. The gravy (I would call it sauce, but the family insists on "gravy" ) should be sweet and basil-heavy to complement the flavors of the sausages.

Time 1h5m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 (19 1/2 ounce) packages sweet Italian turkey sausage
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced onion
1 (46 ounce) can tomato juice
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 (6 ounce) cans water
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with onion garlic and basil
1/2 cup sugar (may need as much as 1 cup to sweeten the gravy appropriately)
1 1/2 tablespoons dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning
1 teaspoon parsley flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper
1 (14 1/2 ounce) box thin whole wheat spaghetti

Steps:

  • Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium heat while dicing onion and celery. Sauté vegetables until onions turn clear. Remove from heat.
  • In a large pot (6 qt or larger, I use an 8 qt stock pot) over medium-low heat, combine tomato juice, tomato paste, water, diced tomatoes, onion, celery, sugar, and seasonings.
  • Heat gravy to a boil (shouldn't need to raise heat above medium) and add sausages; boil for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Prepare pasta according to package directions and drain. Spoon a small amount of gravy over pasta (in its own pot) and stir gently to help prevent sticking.
  • Serving size is roughly a cup of pasta, one sausage, and about 3/4 cup gravy.

HOMEMADE SWEET ITALIAN SAUSAGE (MILD OR HOT)



Homemade Sweet Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot) image

This is a very versatile Italian sausage which can be used in many different ways. You can take it from mild to hot and it's very easy to use. There are also different options for type of meat to use, like ground chuck or ground turkey (do not use ground beef). If using ground turkey, you'll have to coat your skillet with a little olive or veggie oil before cooking as it has very little fat and will stick to skillet.
